How to Avoid Those Fakes !

Next time that Street Vendor shows you that fancy looking "Nokia" Cell Phone, you can challenge him to prove its authenticity by the special Nokia Codes below.


*#92702689#

This shows the phone details like Serial Number, Year of Manufacture , etc. Owner has to put the month and year of purchase. This can only be done once and can not be changed later. This code only works for Nokia phones. It can be used to test if a phone is really Nokia or not.

Note : On some Nokia models, one has to switch off the phone to come out of this Menu. On other models, there is an "Exit" facility.

*#0000#

This gives the Cell Phone Model Number and (firmware) software version. Only works for Nokia models

*#06#

This gives the Cell phone's Serial number only. This code works for all Cell Phones, not necessarily Nokia models.

*#33704#

This changes the SIM card from one network to the other. Works on some Nokia models like 3310,where the back cover has been modified to hold two SIM cards.

*#355738#

This deletes the phone's Internet settings. Only works on some Nokia models.
